Famous Kawasaki Green from Blue
We have been advised that it has not run since last year
In 2000 a new look was introduced for the ZX-9R, with distinctive twin headlights and a separate ram-air intake replacing the single headlight and integrated intake of the C-model. The engine gained a few horsepower from slightly shorter length CVRD 40mm carburettors, a compression ratio increase to 12:2:1 from 11. 5:1, and larger diameter (35mm vs. 31. 8mm) header pipes. A lower duration intake cam increased cranking compression. Further improvements were aimed primarily at handling. The frame was made stiffer through the enlarging of the front engine mounting bolts.
Sometime in the past, the machine has been repainted from Blue to the famous Kawasaki Green. We have been advised by the vendor that it has not run since last year and will need to be recommissioned before use.
